72-year-old Bobby Dunford looks at the damage to his neighbor's house in Pulaski, Va., Saturday, April 9, 2011 after a tornado ripped through the Pulaski and Draper areas of Pulaski County Friday evening. Bobby, whose house was also damaged, was able to help save is neighbor, Sara Edwards, with the help of another neighbor. "It was worse than a train," Dunford said. "The sky was yellow and green. I was standing at the front door with my wife, and I told Sara to get inside. I threw my wife on the floor and here it came. It just lasted about 10 seconds. Me and a neighbor kicked in the back door of Sara's house. She was in her bedroom, thank God. It was the only room in the house that the roof stayed on. Its a miracle."
